Stay and help around the home in a relaxed coastal town near Barcelona, Spain

Details

  Description

  Hi there!
  
  I live in a bright and spacious flat near the sea in Vilanova i la Geltrú, a relaxed coastal town about 40 minutes from Barcelona. I’d like to invite someone friendly and easygoing to stay for a while and share daily home life.
  
  I’m a therapist and engineer working on my own project, so I spend part of the day working from home and part outside. The atmosphere is calm, independent and respectful — not a party house, but also not overly strict. The idea is to create a comfortable and natural coexistence.
  
  The flat has a large living room with lots of natural light, a balcony with open views, a fully equipped kitchen, a swimming pool, and is very close to the beach. The area is quiet, safe and well connected, with everything you need nearby.
  
  What I offer:
  A private room in the flat, with full flexibility and no fixed schedules — a relaxed base to enjoy life by the sea near Barcelona.
  
  What I ask:
  A few hours of help per day with simple home tasks like cleaning, cooking, groceries, basic maintenance and taking care of plants.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I was born in Barcelona, and I’m a product designer and therapist who has travelled and lived across different parts of Asia. I’m also a former Couchsurfing ambassador.
  
  I know Barcelona, Catalonia and Spain from different perspectives, and I’m happy to share that with you. I can also give you plenty of tips to explore Vilanova, the surrounding area, and the country.
